Gateway Technical College |
|
Original state legislation establishing adult and
technical education was enacted in 1911. The first technical school
in Wisconsin, the nation's first publicly supported technical institution,
began that same year in downtown Racine as the name predecessor
to Gateway Technical College. A state-sanctioned technical school
opened in Kenosha in 1912.
Kenosha County established the first Vocational, Technical and
Adult Education District under state law in 1965, which allowed
district formation beyond city limits on July 1, 1966. Walworth
County joined the Kenosha District in 1967 to form District 6, and
the City of Racine expanded services on July 1, 1967, to include
Racine County. On July 1, 1971, a new Vocational, Technical and
Adult Education District 6 was formed, comprised of Kenosha, Racine,
and Walworth Counties. In 1994 the state technical district system
became the Wisconsin Technical College System.
The name "Gateway" was adopted October 19, 1972, by the
District Board for the Gateway District, replacing reference to
District 6, with campuses at Elkhorn, Kenosha, and Racine. As was
the case in 1911, Gateway today continues to meet the need for skilled
workers in technical-oriented fields.
